I'm not a big baker generally because there's just the 2 of us and neither of us are big eaters. I really like the sugar cookie recipe I have because you can "fiddle" with it, add cocoa powder, or whatever. I'm not too big on houseplants, but I do overwinter a lot of plants that I keep out on the deck/porch during the summer (ferns, etc.).
Crawgarden: I've never tried Krumcake or mince pies. I have always been intrigued by mince pies. Are they difficult? Recipes! We need recipes!
